What I love about this Chocolate Self Saucing Pudding Thermomix recipe:
- Incredibly easy to make – no need to use boiling water
- It’s SAUCY – yes we’ve made sure that it is super saucy
- Pantry staples – very budget friendly
- Perfectly light and fluffy, even using gluten-free self raising flour
- For dairy-free you can use your choice of milk and replace the butter with Nuttelex or coconut oil
- Make it egg free by swapping the egg for a banana
For Best Results Baking the Pudding
I used a square enamel baking dish, I always find enamel or metal dishes help cook that little bit faster in the oven. You can use any medium sized casserole dish, just check it after 30 min and keep cooking if required.
This was cooked in my fan-forced oven, however it would be delicious smoked in the Traeger too!
We haven’t tried it in the air-fryer, but you might like to check on it at 15 min and every 5 min after – just to make sure you don’t lose all the lovely sauce!
To Prepare Ahead of Time
This dish is best cooked straightaway, however you could make the elements and keep them separate until ready to bake. Give the sauce a quick microwave to heat it back up prior to adding the batter.
